Overview

• Caitlin Clark announced on social media that she will miss the remainder of 2025, including any postseason, after appearing in 13 games.
• Fever GM Amber Cox said time was not on the team’s side and emphasized that Clark’s long-term health remains the priority.
• Clark had resumed 5‑on‑0 and shooting work but never returned to full‑contact practice before the decision.
• Her shutdown follows a right groin injury on July 15 and a reported mild left‑ankle bone bruise on Aug. 7, after earlier quad and left‑groin absences.
• Indiana holds the eighth seed at 21‑20 as season‑ending injuries to Sophie Cunningham, Sydney Colson, Aari McDonald and Chloe Bibby strain the roster.
